I don't understand those idiots either. Reggie averages 8.5 ypc and he led the league in receptions and touchdowns before he got hurt.

Noone on this board will say Reggie is a good running back. WE GET IT. frick!! He needs the ball in open space and thats what screens and swing passes are for.

How can a running back get into any kind of groove and put up decent numbers AS A RUNNINGBACK when the offense runs the ball 24 times a game split between 3 different backs???

Let's not blame the running back for being on the best passing team in the NFL.

oh yeah, and

I think I saw him run 2-3 three last game for negative yards. I could think of better returners than Bush, you took one too many hits off your bong with that statement.

1 in 5 punt returns is a touchdown. That's scary.

Name them....It can't be argued that Reggie is anything but a dangerous return man.
His rushing game is the issue.

And it still made more sense than your statement.

You forgot to mention his "I'm gonna run sideways to the sidelines so I can make a big play" mentality.
Seriously, this guy needs to realize he's not playing against Arizona or Washington...the NFL is real football.
He needs to get a little humility rather than think he's all that and learn to run FORWARD NOT SIDEWAYS!!! He is a bust.

And Thomas averages a higher YPC than that.

So, why do you want him to be our RB then?

Has an NFL team EVER won anything with no running game? When Reggie is our feature back, we have ZERO running game. That is why Brees's stats are worse with Bush in and better with PT in.

If his name was not Reggie Bush, would he have even made the team this year?


They brought Jason David back and mentioning the aboves name in a sentence with this dude would be an insult.

Hey morons, he's not a running back. I dont care what hes listed at, hes basically a slot receiver that can play out the backfield. Oh yea, he led the league in TD's and receptions before he got hurt and is the top in recetions the last 3 years (before injury).
Your logic and "truth telling" is not welcome here.

Reggie doesn't deserve this shite. sometimes I actually hope he does go to another NFL team.. and excels. and we get another TRUE first round bust to take his place.

For those talking about our record with/without Bush, please look at the teams we played when he was out.
